§11A-1-15. Payment by sheriff to municipal and county board of
education treasuries.
Each month the sheriff shall pay all moneys collected for
any municipal corporation and the county board of education into
the respective treasuries of such municipal corporation and
county board of education, payment to be made on or before the
tenth day of each month of all moneys collected during the
preceding month for such municipal corporation and the county
board of education: Provided, That the sheriff shall not be
required to make such monthly payments to the county board of
education, if the county board has designated the sheriff as its
treasurer pursuant to section six, article nine, chapter eighteen
of this code. For the faithful performance of this duty, he
shall execute a bond, to be approved by the municipal council or
board of education, in the penalty to be fixed by the council or
board, not to exceed the amount of municipal or school taxes
which it is estimated he will collect within any period of two
months. The premium on such bond shall be paid by the
municipality or board of education. Every sheriff who fails to
make any payment when due shall be charged with interest at the
rate of twelve percent a year.
